Lyon CL QF | Pre-Match Thread

Bit slow in midfield,thought we might of gone on the attack.

Assume peps after 0-0 at 70 mins then bring Foden on.

Strange team tbh. I sometimes don't get why he tinkers so much with the squad in CL knockout stages. If we fuck up here there should be no excuses. I am still giving Pep the benefit of doubt but his past CL matches has me concerned.

One change, now equates to tinkering

Strange and disappointing lineup on paper. Midfield looks way too slow, and never a fan of Gundogan in the advanced role

Hopefully a Pep masterplan though

We are in for another wild QF

I have read somewhere while back that City have about 50% win rate with Gundogan playing advanced.

Joe Hart talks like he is holding a huge fart in.
Just relax.

Do you know the formation and how we are going to play, I don’t. Are we using wing backs to attack, ‘ cause I don’t know yet. Like the test of us you’re guessing.

Well yes I am guessing but I can see the players he has picked and the general idea,i am defo not an expert but I can have an opinion,it is typical pep this,what is it they say about insanity?

 

[Barcon]

As I predicted...

Boom.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Whether this works or not, if we had enough players with genuine athleticism, we wouldn't need to do it.

3 at the back? i dont like this lineup, pep paying too much respect to lyon. trying to bait them into playing an higher defensive line but eh.
